  • SearchQueries . . . October 02, 2018, at 08:07 PM by achmizs: All of these content views, when seen in the properly general way—i.e, views on search queries—naturally become viewable via RSS, exportable in arbitrary formats (JSON, etc.), transcludable, analyzable, etc. !!! Data export An API endpoint that accepts a parameters list via GET and responds with the results list in (for instance) JSON format, constitutes an extremely powerful and straightforward data export feature. !!! Custom content views An HTML-rendering view on a search query can be inserted into modular content areas. This allows a site administrator (or the administrator of a “subforum” or similar “site area”) to easily construct layouts with custom content views. Even more powerfully, it allows each user to construct custom layouts for pages they control (thus allowing easy and customizable construction of “user dashboards”, “personal pages”, etc.).
